There are so many that feel they have lost all of their trust in the "heimish" hashgochas especially for pesach. After the Shufrah Cocoa, the Glick potato chips, the Hisachdus pesach oil, the vinegar,the Gefen sardines, etc

The meat scandals, etc

Should we just use the OU type of hashgocha with a Mashgiach temidi products for pesach?

At a gathering of Lakewood Askonim (lishaim shumaiyim) a question was asked on this weeks sedrah "Ki sisah".

There were 600,000 men over 20 that left mitzraiyim, so there were an equal amount of women and at least twice as many children. In total there were at least 1,800,000 that they collected gold for the "aigel". Each one gave at least an ounce of gold, that would be over 100,000 lbs of gold.

One certifier that refuses to take any responsibility for "infestation" is the Certifier ofGefen.

The recent episodes by "Gefen-Sardines", Krill were found in the product (besides the disgust of cooking krill with sardines), there should have been a recall, instead the certifier put out a letter that the consumer should remove the guts & krill, etc from the cooked product. [consumers you read it right, no typo]

Remember Pesach Cocoa last year? What's this year? Will this year be any improvements? If we can get the heimish Hashgochas (& the OK) to have at least a basic "OU" standard? What's that?

For Pesach, have a full time mashgiach that reads, writes & is fluent in English. Arives prior to production with enough time to ascertain if all of the requirements are being met without just relying on "I though, he said, Oh!, etc".

If it's from China don't write product of USA, etc The variables are endless.

"For that extra heimish name & price" , give the kosher consumer that which he thinks he's getting. Will you mashgiach or certifier use the product for Pesach may be some guideline.

We don't like what we are seeing. Can we all do without all of those products for 1 week?

At Maoz Vegetarian, every day is meatless. But we understand and appreciate that not everyone is strictly vegetarian. This is exactly why we decided to initiate the Maoz Meatless Mondays special promotion and help people take the first step towards a healthier diet and more responsible lifestyle.

Kosher certified by the infamous Rabbi Steinberg, where alledgedly the only item that has to be kosher is his certification fee. The Visiting mashgiach stops in once a week. they are open on Shabbos.

The fear of the "A" bomb protects America.

Bear in mind, it's the A-bomb that has protected the USA all these years.
